If it isn't an owned IP from one of the big three, I always treat these undisputed exclusives as a maybe.


I was saying this earlier, but on Gamespot the lovely Jess McDonnell stated that Capcom made it clear that 5 is pretty much Sony's for the rest of the gen.

I would like it for us to know how this deal is explained in whatever contract that may exist. The thing is that "pretty much" for the rest of the gen could mean several years. Or maybe it could mean console exclusive for the gen. We can't tell which one it is really. But if they are just counting years and judging that from that same number of Earth rounds around the Sun it pretty much covers the whole gen then it could end up being a wordplay and then Xbone fans could have their Special Edition of whatever eventually.

Capcom has demonstrated that passage of time is not a factor when deciding to reissue their Street Fighter games.

Of course its a given that this deal with Sony does make PS4 the home for Street Fighter in consoles for a long while and that this will undoubtly benefit Sony but I still can't rule out that this game could eventually be appearing for Xbone, not until the gen is done/there's the first precendent of a contract leaked and we read the piece of paper.

I will call this a maybe for the time being.


I would like an explaination as well, but I had your reservations months ago. The news which was just released ended all the speculation for me pertaining to other iterations of five being made to widen the base. I expect some news at E3. I heard Sony was a publisher of the game and Its probably because Capcom has been low on cash.
